New fingerprint technology for police cientists say nanotechnology could in the future help police catch crimi- S nals by providing clearer and more detailed fingerprints. Current powders used by detectives to pick up prints work because the oil from fingers has a natural tackiness. But researchers are developing a nanoparticle dust which actively seeks out any oil, how- ever small the amount that is left. While current prints are not some- times clear enough to lead to a sus- pect, the new dust should provide a much more detailed picture. The nanoparticles are tiny glass spheres between 200 and 600 nanometres in diameter, too small to BREAKERS be seen individually by the human eye. As well as being speckled with a fluorescent dye, they are coated with

PATH hydrophobic molecules which are re- pelled by water and attracted to oil, fixing tightly to the fingerprint. A lead researcher said the nanoparticles should pick out even the faintest of prints because they are able to stick to tiny traces of oil. He also said they should be much sharper,with finer details which could be crucial to identifying a print. The research, which is still in its early stages, has been presented to police officials at the Nanotechnology in Crime Prevention and Detection conference. Cockerels use sophisticated sex tactics cientists have discovered mating cock- S erels dish out more sperm to “sexy” chickens with big crests than old hens they have bred with before. Researchers have found male fowl use ex- tremely sophisticated tactics when mating to maximise their chances of fertilising eggs. The birds tend to give less sperm to hens that were recent partners and more to particularly healthy looking females with “large sexual ornaments.” These “orna- ments” include the fleshy combs or crests on the chickens’ heads. A researcher said that in human terms cockerels found these combs to be sexy. “They seem to base their copulation deci- sions on the expressions of these female or- naments. To anthropomorphise, they would find them sexually attractive, I guess,” he added. The research — which was conducted at the Swedish University of Agricultural Studies — said cockerels behaved in this way because the females were so promiscu- ous. Hens mate with several males during their reproductive cycle so sperm from dif- ferent cockerels must race each other to fer- tilise eggs. “It’s a bit like a lottery really — the more tickets they buy,the more likely they are to win the fertilisation game.”
